The company delivers a wide range of programmes under the Modern Apprenticeship scheme in the water and gas sectors, including network construction, domestic national gas installation and maintenance, and level seven management apprenticeships.
Modern Apprenticeships (MAs) help employers to develop their workforce by training new staff, and up-skilling existing employees. Open to candidates aged 16 upwards, MAs let people earn a wage while gaining an industry-recognised qualification.
Each year, more than 27,000 people start a Modern Apprenticeship in Scotland.
